Retrograde b*ttlefield (2026)

[bunniefuu]

[1951 Korean Front]

Didn't expect it to be this powerful.

Two waves in total. Report it first.

Lizhuang. Lizhuang.

This is Zhangzhuang.

Lizhuang. Lizhuang.

This is Zhangzhuang.

Lizhuang. Lizhuang.

This is Zhangzhuang.

One round didn't detonate.

Calling Lizhuang.

At 23:30,

during our attack on Area 1,

one rocket failed to detonate.

Please note,

one rocket failed to detonate.

Lizhuang. Lizhuang!

Can't reach them.

Find higher ground first.

Lizhuang. Lizhuang!

Over here! Over here!

This is Lizhuang.

This is Lizhuang.

Copy that. Please respond.

One rocket failed to detonate. One...

Pack everything up, now.

Platoon Leader Wang.

Time to move out.

Hurry up.

I'll cut yours later.

Ha, looks like a dog chewed it.

Try using this yourself and you'll see!

Platoon Leader.

Pack it up. We're leaving.

- Platoon Leader.

- The note.

I wrote it long ago.

When are you mailing it home?

When we rotate out,

you can mail it back yourself.

Cui,

why do you keep writing that stuff?

It's just "I'm safe" every time.

Whether I write it or not isn't up to you.

It's up to me!

Squad Leader Cui, write.

Just write.

What's it got to do with you?

You've got some nerve.

You've got some nerve!

Stop! Hands up!

Hands up!

Drop your weapon! Do you hear me?

Still running?

How childish.

Every single one of you.

Eat up.

Thank you, Platoon Leader.

Liu Hao.

Keep this safe.

Keep your tears.

Platoon Leader Wang, the company commander

wants you to report to the headquarters.

Yes, sir.

Is Wang Zi'an here?

Sir.

I just arrived.

Come here.

The mission is urgent,

so I'll make it brief.

Is your hand still injured?

Commander, I'm fine.

Listen carefully.

We have two scouts

who lost contact

with the headquarters at this location.

They're carrying

very important intelligence.

It must not fall into enemy hands.

Rescue them.

That's your mission.

Can you do it?

If there are issues, speak up now.

No issues.

The First Platoon

is ready to move anytime.

Good.

- Zhang.

- You're here.

Commissar.

Commander.

Reporting.

a*tillery technician

Li Mingliang reporting.

Headquarters observer

Liang Kaiyi reporting.

Comrade Li Mingliang,

please brief everyone.

You all saw

what flew overhead earlier, right?

Those are the Katyusha rockets

that we secretly brought in

from the Soviet Union.

Before losing contact,

the two scouts reported

that in the two waves fired just now,

one rocket failed to detonate.

This is a secret weapon.

It must absolutely not fall

into the enemy's hands.

Comrade Li Mingliang specializes

in this type of weapons.

He will go with you.

He'll take care of it after you find it.

Understood.

Comrade Liang Kaiyi

is familiar with the local terrain

and speaks Korean.

The superiors sent her to be your guide.

Chief of Staff,

do you have anything to add?

The new gear works well.

Protect yourselves.

Thank you, sir.

I order

your platoon to carry full ammunition.

I'll assign you a mortar as well.

Remember, you'll be behind enemy lines.

You have no backup.

Don't get bogged down in combat.

The main force is preparing

to relocate now.

I will wait for you here.

I'll give you 12 hours at most.

You must complete the mission.

Yes, sir!

Squad 1, Squad 2,

we only have 12 hours.

Is that clear?

Yes, sir!

Qin Yao.

Here!

Protect Comrade Li Mingliang.

Yes, sir.

- Cui Songpei.

- Here.

Protect Comrade Liang Kaiyi.

Yes, sir.

Zhou Jianye, Deng Bingjun.

Here.

You two just arrived.

You haven't worked much with the others.

Sit this one out.

Yes, sir.

We want to go.

We'll only learn

to work together in combat.

Alright.

You'll stay in Squad 2

and follow Cui's orders.

Yes.

Yes.

Next time, say "report" before you speak.

Yes, sir.

Attention, everyone.

Grab your a*mo and gear.

We leave in 5 minutes.

Dismissed.

Yes, sir!

Right face!

Double time, march!

Don't just stand there.

Give me a hand.

Shuan!

I got it.

Don't move.

This is my sweetheart.

You're wounded.

Just a mosquito bite.

It's nothing.

One of my men, Cheng Dinghua.

Greetings, Platoon Leader Wang.

Old friend, we're together again.

Live and die together.

Platoon Leader, I'm ready.

You are not going this time.

Why? I must go.

It's not like you're getting married

and heading into the bridal chamber.

What's the rush?

There'll be plenty of battles.

Just focus on recovering first.

I can't sit still.

Zhang Shengli.

Your mission is to move the injured.

Platoon Leader.

Come back safely.

Move out!

[A Good Day to Ascend]

Hurry up. Keep up.

- Comrade Li Mingliang.

- Here.

Thank you, comrade.

I'm not hungry.

You will get hungry quickly

with this rapid march.

Take it.

Thank you.

Dapao.

Hey, I don't need it, you keep it.

Hurry. Stop talking.

Comrade Li Mingliang,

this is Miao Dapao,

a soldier from our squad.

Hello, Comrade Dapao.

Technician Li Mingliang.

That guy with glasses doesn't look

like he belongs on a b*ttlefield.

And there's a female soldier too.

This mission won't be easy.

Stop talking.

Just follow orders.

Saving people is hard enough,

and we still have to find the rocket.

We don't even know if the rocket

is still there or if it's detonated.

Comrade Li Mingliang,

how far can the rocket travel?

About 8.5 kilometers.

How far?

8.5 kilometers.

8.5 kilometers?

Our 60mm mortars

can only sh**t a little over 4 li.

This thing can sh**t 16 li?

17 li.

That's a long way.

Look.

The most precious thing about the Katyusha

is its rockets.

The firepower can cover several acres.

Impressive, right?

Hey, if it's that impressive,

can we borrow it?

Can you even read the dials?

Get back.

Hey, what are you guys talking about?

Katyusha.

Kat-what?

Katyusha, you won't understand.

There's something I haven't seen?

Let me see.

Comrade Kaiyi,

ever been to the front lines?

Yes, I crossed the river with the 39th.

I was injured during the battle of Unsan.

You're a heroine!

What's wrong?

- What's wrong?

- I can't stop you no matter how hard I try.

Comrade.

I doubt you're even awake.

- Aren't you afraid we'll drag them down?

- You're scared?

- What are you afraid of?

- I'm not.

Bring it on.

Fine.

Quiet, everyone.

- Huang Chu.

- Yes.

Follow me.

The rest of you, hold position

and stay alert.

Yes, sir.

What's going on?

Hold position and stay alert. Let's go.

Bring them all here.

Nobody move!

Don't move!

South Korean soldiers, what should we do?

Let's go around.

The mission comes first.

Move again and I'll k*ll you!

What's the situation?

Miao Dapao, what are you doing?

He said he wanted to scout.

You b*stards!

What are you doing?

Save the children!

Over here! Over here!

Huang Chu, tell Squad 1 and 2 to assemble.

Yes, sir.

Let's go.

Don't run!

Stop!

Platoon Leader.

Be on alert!

Save my sister.

Please save my sister.

Save my sister.

[Save my sister.]

Comrade Kaiyi.

What is he saying?

Save my sister.

Save his sister first.

Deng Bingjun.

Here!

Qin Yao.

Take Squad 1.

Move through quickly.

Don't get bogged down.

Yes.

Keep an eye on Comrade Li Mingliang.

Any more issues and you're done.

Okay.

Squad 1, move out.

Where is the kid?

The road on the right.

Comrade Li Mingliang.

Squad 2, move out.

What are you even good for?

- On the right.

- Turn right.

On the left.

Turn left.

If you dare to run off again,

I won't let you off.

They exchanged fire.

Dapao is just like that, scaring you.

Let's go.

Right ahead.

Right ahead.

Right here.

Your arm!

I'm fine. The child...

Brother!

My leg hurts so much.

Shunying.

Don't cry.

Brother is right here.

Come.

Hold this.

Mazha!

Squad 1, go first.

Brother!

Child.

Child.

Child!

Over here!

Get down!

Fan! Fan!

Mazha!

Here!

Fan! Mazha! Flank them!

Yes, sir!

Comrade Li Mingliang.

Go!

Stop.

Are you okay?

Hang in there.

Hurry.

Brother!

Let me go.

I need to find my brother!

I want my brother.

Okay, okay.

It's fine, it's fine.

My brother was just with that uncle.

I know. I know.

She's looking for her brother.

Squad 1, go first.

Yes.

Give it to me. You follow.

Quiet down.

Where did my brother go?

Here.

Don't cry.

Kid. What's your name?

What's your name?

Cui Shunying.

Her name is Cui Shunying.

Where are your parents?

Where are your parents?

They passed away.

An orphan.

b*stards.

If I see them,

I'll sh**t those animals.

Comrade Li Mingliang,

hold your weapon steady before speaking.

Comrade?

You don't say comrade informally.

Why must you call me comrade?

What? You don't like the title?

Want to be called brother

like the soldiers?

That's a good thing.

We took fire together today,

so we are brothers from now on.

Shunying, Shuying.

Your brother was too tired,

so he fell asleep.

Will he become a star

and watch over me like mom and dad?

Yes.

Your brother also wants you

to live on bravely.

Let's go together.

We can't leave her here.

Take her with us.

I know what you're thinking.

Our mission is urgent.

If we take her with us...

If we leave her here,

she definitely won't live.

Let's save whoever we can.

Find a village and leave her there.

Understood.

Bring her for now.

Zhou Jianye.

Yes.

Move out.

Follow Squad 1.

You are an educated man.

Us roughnecks

only trust the weapons in our hands,

but this thing can't sh**t 17 li.

Li Mingliang.

Let's go!

Save them!

Dapao!

Get down!

Let go of me!

Dapao.

Calm down.

Find the firing position!

Yes, sir!

You two, come with me.

Keep an eye on him.

Keep up.

Miao Dapao, where is Qin Yao?

Tell Shuan

to clear the firing position!

Yes.

Huang Chu, Peizhi!

Mazha, cover!

Yes, sir!

Dongbei, protect Liang Kaiyi

and the child.

Shuan, take out the enemy position.

Let's go!

Go!

Go!

Missed! 5 meters forward!

Shells!

Fan!

There's another firing position!

Jianye, you stay.

Cover! Follow me.

What's the situation?

Squad Leader, take it out quickly!

It's too close, we might hit our own.

Over here!

Huang Chu!

I'm fine.

- Songpei, cover me.

- Yes, sir.

Salute.

At ease.

Move out.

Wait for me to come back.

I'll take you home.

What's wrong with Miao Dapao?

Do you know why?

Qin Yao is Miao Dapao's older brother.

Isn't his surname Miao?

It's "miao" as in aim.

Miao Dapao.

His name is Qin Yi.

Only by completing the mission well

can we do right by Squad Leader Qin.

Loyalty!

Comrade Kaiyi, the map.

Jianye, hold the lamp.

Comrade Kaiyi,

is there another route?

The other route crosses the Imjin River,

which will take us an extra 6 hours.

We only have 12 hours.

We have to push through.

Two comrades' fates are still unknown.

Party members, come here.

Party members, gather

at the Platoon Leader's.

Give me a shell.

I'll blow them up with one shot.

a*tillery shells make too much noise.

If we attract reinforcements,

we won't be able to get away.

Right.

I'm a Party member too.

Zhou Jianye, Deng Bingjun.

Protect Comrade Li Mingliang.

Platoon Leader, you're short on men.

I'll go with him.

Okay, agreed.

Deng Bingjun.

Yes.

You and Huang Chu provide cover.

Remember, try not to sh**t.

Yes, sir.

Dongbei!

Yes.

You and Cheng Dinghua

protect Comrade Liang Kaiyi and the child.

Yes, sir.

Comrade Li Mingliang,

please follow orders

and listen to instructions.

Do not act on your own.

Party members.

Let's go.

This is so boring.

Get it together.

Cross the bridge.

Rest here for 15 minutes.

Yes, sir.

Check and replace your weapons and a*mo.

How did you and Platoon Leader Wang meet?

This kid saved my life.

Back then, he was the Commander's guard.

He dragged me

out of a pile of dead bodies.

He carried me

and even helped me carry this guy.

We have less than 7 hours left.

The child must be sent away

as soon as possible.

She can't follow us anymore.

I agree. Drop her off

once you find a village.

Dapao.

Dapao.

Just found some chocolate.

One each.

I don't want it.

About Squad Leader Qin...

Stop it.

I know you can't forgive me.

A life for a life.

Squad Leader Qin died because of me.

My life now belongs to Squad 1.

I can sacrifice myself for any of you.

Will my brother come back to life

if you die?

I hate you educated types the most.

All talk and no action.

I don't care what you think.

I will protect every one of you.

Comrade Li.

Complete your mission.

Deal with your rocket.

Then, leave.

Are you afraid?

No.

Alright, tough guy.

Why are you looking at me?

I'm not afraid either.

You're all doing great.

Let me tell you.

The first time I went to the b*ttlefield,

I was terrified.

Couldn't even hold my g*n steady.

My legs were shaking.

Couldn't see a thing.

I just kept sh**ting.

Then how are you so good now?

b*ll*ts always find the scared ones.

We veterans have a saying,

want to know it?

If we're alive, we keep fighting.

If we die, so be it.

If you're handed supplies,

just eat it.

Here.

Thank you, Squad Leader.

Let's go.

Thank you, Squad Leader.

w*r is like that.

None of us can control it.

But Squad Leader Qin's death

was because of me.

Comrade Li Mingliang.

This isn't the first time

you've seen a comrade die, right?

My childhood friend

also died last month.

Coming off the b*ttlefield,

I couldn't even piece his body together.

So,

you can understand Miao Dapao, right?

I received a letter from my brother

a few days ago.

Actually, I haven't seen my brother

in a long time.

He came to Korea even earlier than me.

Back at the observation post,

I watched the charging soldiers die.

I really wanted to see him every day,

but I was also afraid

of actually seeing him.

Comrade Kaiyi.

If you don't want Squad Leader Qin

to die in vain,

stop being impulsive.

From now on,

we'll escort you to a safe place.

Don't worry.

Korea is full of orphans like her now.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

We are all orphans.

The invaders are too brutal.

They've destroyed so many families.

It will be fine once the w*r is over.

To be honest,

she really looks like you.

Platoon Leader.

If I can't make it back,

my daughter...

Don't talk nonsense.

Take care of your own child.

No one dies until the American devils

are driven out.

Take it.

Drive out the American devils.

Anything else?

Yes.

Dongbei,

don't wallow.

Aren't we still alive?

Just fight.

You little Mazha.

Good stuff.

2nd Squad Leader,

next time seize this stuff,

I'll keep it for you.

Keep it? Dream on.

So stingy.

Squad Leader.

What do you think

happened to those 2 scouts?

We're only halfway there

and we already lost Squad Leader Qin,

Fan Peizhi...

Dongbei.

I know what you want to say.

If something happens to you,

we will definitely save you.

The instructor said,

he hoped

everyone of us can be safe.

But we...

I wrote all the names in the front.

Chen Bao.

We all called him Brother Bao.

Yao Hua.

From Suiyuan,

he's half a fellow townsman.

You two came after he sacrificed.

Where is my name?

You are right here.

You actually looked for it?

Are you trying to draw on my name?

No.

Alright.

Write down their names

so that no one will forget them.

By the way, Squad Leader,

since you know how to read,

why did you ask the platoon leader

to write the safety slip for you?

The character "safe"

is too hard to write.

There are 7 hours left.

And they still haven't come back.

Yeah, dawn has already broken.

It's only eight kilometers away.

Logically speaking,

they ought to be on their way back by now.

But logically speaking...

Even logically speaking,

with this short distance,

he could've crawled back alive.

All units, attention: An enemy squad

has infiltrated our defense zone.

Target unknown.

All units continue to

search for the enemy scouts

to retrieve intelligence.

Keep an eye out for the enemy squad.

The scouts are still alive.

The enemy already knows

we've penetrated their lines.

Move out now!

Move out!

Hurry up.

When we pass the factory,

just climb over the mountain,

and we're there.

It's right ahead of us.

Let's go.

Fall in!

Move out!

Please help me pick up my doll.

I'll get it.

My doll...

Take cover!

Take cover!

Deng Bingjun!

Surround them!

Huang Chu, take the high ground!

Yes, sir!

- Deng Bingjun.

- Present.

Protect Comrade Liang Kaiyi and the child.

Yes, sir. Let's go.

Ready for battle!

Don't let a single one escape.

Open fire on them!

Charge!

Grenade!

Fall back!

Go! Go!

Surround them!

Songpei, retreat!

Where's Dapao?

Upstairs.

sh**t!

I told you to fire, you fool!

Mazha!

Dapao!

Zhou Jianye!

Zhou Jianye!

Don't play dead. Get up! Get up!

Zhou Jianye!

Bingjun! Bingjun!

Don't play dead. Zhou Jiangye, get up!

Huang Chu,

remember this place.

We'll take all our brothers home.

Why don't we take them with us now?

Why?

Zhou Jianye... he was still alive

just a moment ago.

I only left him alone for a second.

Just one second!

7 men have already fallen in combat.

I don't have much experience.

There's also a scholar,

a female soldier,

and a child with us.

There are only 4 veterans left.

Enough! Stop it!

I'm going to speak my piece!

I'll take them back!

Take them back!

You are a soldier!

He's... gone.

Everyone, get ready.

We'll move out in 10 minutes.

Platoon Leader,

if I don't make it back alive,

promise me

to take both of our bodies home.

Qin Yi,

apologize to Comrade Li Mingliang.

Why should I apologize to him?

He saved your life a moment ago.

What's that attitude of yours?

What attitude?

He's the reason my brother died.

You know it's true.

Your brother's death

had nothing to do with him!

How could it not?

If it weren't for him,

would my brother have walked at the front?

Would he have turned around?

Would he have been shot?

Would he have sacrificed himself?

Platoon Leader!

Dapao,

don't be like this.

Leave me alone!

If you're angry,

you can take it out on me.

Platoon Leader...

Platoon Leader...

You're all grown men.

Stop crying, please.

Gear up.

Platoon Leader,

thank you.

Did Dapao apologize to you?

Yes.

That's good.

No rift between comrades

is beyond mending.

Platoon Leader, will all our soldiers

make it home safely?

Yes.

Dapao said.

Squad Leader Qin was his only family left.

I'm sorry for him.

w*r always

brings bloodshed and sacrifice.

Any one of us could meet that fate.

Why couldn't it have been me instead?

Are your parents still living?

I also have a younger brother.

I once had a younger brother.

When I was six,

my parents and brother

were k*lled by the Kuomintang.

I enlisted in the army afterward.

The army is my home.

My comrades are my family.

Platoon Leader...

Let's complete the mission first.

Platoon Leader?

Coming.

Comrade Li Mingliang,

stay alive.

Your parents are waiting for you

back home.

Huang Chu,

if I lay down my life,

keep this notebook safe.

Come back!

Take it.

Nonsense.

Salute!

At ease.

Move out.

Be careful.

Report.

1st and 2nd Battalions

have completed their withdrawal.

Got it.

Yes, sir.

There's less than 5 hours left.

Zhang,

how about you head back first?

I'll stay and wait for them.

Let's wait a little longer.

Platoon Leader.

They should be somewhere around here.

- Huang Chu.

- Present.

- Deng Bingjun.

- Present.

- Search the southwest.

- Yes, sir.

- Comrade Li Mingliang.

- Present.

Binoculars, please.

Songbae, let's go.

It should be here.

Let's go.

We found this deep in the woods.

Confirmed it's over there.

Let's go find the rocket shell first.

The situation is unclear.

It's too risky.

Recovering the Katyusha is my mission.

I must complete it.

Is a single rocket shell that critical?

It absolutely is.

I told you before

that Katyusha is top secret.

It cannot fall into enemy hands.

The fate of the two scouts is unknown.

They're either hiding,

or captured by the enemy.

- Comrade Liang Kaiyi.

- Present.

The enemy stronghold has been destroyed.

Their likely escape routes

are as follows:

One group heads west

to the nearest assembly point

for reinforcements;

The other retreats south.

Are there any other possibilities?

They might also move north

to link up with their main force.

Let's go to the base first.

Search quickly.

- Mr. Li Mingliang.

- Present.

Stay safe.

Is this the one we're looking for?

That's it.

Bingjun!

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Give me a hand.

Is Deng Bingjun okay?

He's fine. He's covered in dust.

I told him to wash up by the river.

The rocket shell is intact.

But the fuse is jammed.

Give me some time.

Platoon Leader!

They've engaged the enemy.

We have to go help them!

How much longer do you need?

How heavy is this?

It still weighs over 20 kilograms.

Take it then. Let's move out!

Comrade Liang Kaiyi.

Present.

Bandage the wound for him.

Your name is Liang Kaiyi?

Then Liang Jide...

He's my brother.

You know my brother?

I served alongside him.

How is he now?

[Liang Jide]

Your brother asked me to pass this to you.

Your brother was a real man.

He never backed down

until his last breath.

Give her a moment to compose herself.

Why are there so few of you?

And who's this child?

We met her along the way.

They were originally brother and sister.

Dapao?

Present.

Give him some food.

Here you are.

Thank you.

Dapao,

there's one more, right?

Sister, don't be too sad.

The stars above

and all of us here are watching over you,

so please don't cry.

Thank you.

Sister, hold my hand.

She looks a lot like your daughter.

Go home early.

Settle down soon.

Move out!

Deng Bingjun, let me ask you something.

How many steps does it take

to cross the Yalu River Bridge?

I counted every step when I crossed over.

You need to count them carefully again

on the way back.

Squad Leader, it's exactly 1500 steps.

When the mission is complete,

we can take all brothers home.

Post sentries.

You b*stard!

Stand at attention!

Loyalty above all.

Enemy sighted!

Move!

- Grenade!

- Here!

Comrade Wang Hui,

take Comrade Li Mingliang,

Liang Kaiyi, and the kid

to evacuate first.

Platoon leader, I'll stay.

The mission takes priority.

- Deng Bingjun.

- Present.

- Huang Chu, cover!

- Yes, sir.

- Miao Dapao.

- Present.

- Draw enemy fire!

- Yes, sir!

Go!

Little girl, run away!

Young comrade, run!

Go!

What are you doing back here?

I came to help you.

That's reckless.

Take this.

Where is Li Mingliang?

He headed back already.

It's too late. Let's go.

Go!

Go!

Get out of the way!

Dapao!

Shunying,

you have to live a good life.

I can't abandon my comrades.

Hurry and leave!

We leave together or not at all.

Run!

Wait a second.

Where is Xiaoyi?

Squad Leader,

if you go a little further,

the mission will be complete.

Young comrade!

Report.

The intelligence recovered by the scouts

has been relayed to division headquarters.

You're sleeping soundly.

How many steps does it take

to cross the Yalu River Bridge?

Remember to count them for us

when you head back.

Does your wound still hurt?

The future rests on your shoulders.

From now on,

you'll fill out the safety slips for me.

Pass this to my daughter.

Learn more from me in the days ahead,

ha ha ha.

Don't forget

to take us home.
